Drone Logistics and Transportation Market Analysis

Solution (Warehousing, Shipping, Infrastructure, Software)

The shipping segment is projected to capture over 54% drone logistics and transportation market share by 2037, owing to growing demands from the industry for faster last-mile delivery solutions. As a result, these drones collectively possess the ability to surpass and avoid traffic and reach remote areas which are difficult to access via conventional logistics. In October 2023, Amazon extended tests of its drone delivery service in Texas with CANA Advisors, with the specific intent of delivering medical supplies into underserved areas. Such developments by key players indicate a growing role for drones in shipping, which further drives the adoption.

Sector (Military, Commercial)

By 2037, commercial segment is anticipated to account for around 72% drone logistics and transportation market share. Such growth has been driven by the increasing use of drones by e-commerce, healthcare, retail, and others for their delivery applications. In July 2021, DRONAMICS signed a partnership agreement with DHL Deutsche Post. Through this collaboration, DHL and DRONAMICS agreed to jointly develop solutions and offer same-day cargo drone deliveries to customers using DRONAMICS’ drone delivery network and Black Swan drones. This underlines how commercial entities increasingly use drones for their core value of logistics optimization, therefore propelling growth within this segment.
